Cayenne & Ginger, supplied by Douglas
Laboratories, provides three specially formulated combinations of cayenne and
standardized ginger. Originally from South America, the cayenne plant
has spread across the globe both as a food and as a medicine. Cayenne is very
closely related to bell peppers, jalapeños, paprika, and other similar peppers.
Used in the traditional dishes of Thailand and South America, cayenne is a
well-known plant that has been used in herbal medicine for hundreds of years.
Folk medicine used it for weak digestion and poor circulation, as well as an
immune stimulant. The most important active ingredients in cayenne
are components of a pungent oleoresin, most importantly, capsaicin, but also a
number of other related compounds. Cayenne is also rich in carotenoids (orange
and red coloring compounds), which are receiving current interest for their
strong anti- xidant properties. Ginger(Zingiber officinale) is grown in India,
China, Mexico, and several other countries. It has been used in both Traditional
Chinese Medicine(TCM) and Ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years and was
known for its beneficial gastrointestinal effects. The dried rhizome of ginger
contains approximately 1– 4% volatile oils. These are the medically active
constituents of ginger, and they are also responsible for ginger’s
characteristic odor and taste. Ginger has also been studied for its use in
cardiovascular conditions as well. Adults take 1 capsule daily with meals or as
directed by physician. No known side effects reported. Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct
light. Keep out of reach of children. Bordia A, Verma SK, Srivastava KC. Effect of ginger (Zingiber
